How Coveti Styles the Valiant Midi Dress
Gemma Deeks, Coveti’s Fashion Editor, recommends styling the Zimmermann Valiant Midi Dress in Black with confidence and considered restraint. Romantic prints and luminous textures already do the talking, so accessories should sit quietly alongside the piece rather than compete with it.
- Rectangle: Use a slim belt or wrap silhouette to draw the eye to the waist. The Valiant Midi Dress in Black layers beautifully over a fitted base for added shape.
- Hourglass: Lean into fitted bodices and waist-defining details. Allow the 100% viscose to skim rather than cling for a refined Zimmermann line.
- Tall: Maxi lengths and column proportions elongate effortlessly. Tiered or bias detail on this Dresses reads as gracefully proportioned on taller frames.
- Petite: Look for high-waisted cuts, shorter hemlines, and refined shoulder lines. The structured proportions of the Valiant Midi Dress help balance a petite frame without overwhelming it.
